Mimmo Rotella (1918-2006) - Omaggio a Marilyn

Original work by Mimmo Rotella, undisputed master of décollage and central figure in European art of the second half of the 20th century.

The works belong to the famous cycle devoted to cinema, in which Rotella reworks original film posters through the technique of tearing and reassembly, transforming pop imagery into a powerful contemporary visual language. The torn, overlapped, and reassembled fragments generate a dynamic tension between image and memory, between cultural icon and artistic gesture.

Work by Mimmo Rotella, “Homage to Marilyn,” realized as a décollage multiple on poster. A highly decorative work with strong visual impact.

The piece reapproaches one of the artist’s iconic subjects, linked to the figure of Marilyn Monroe, through the typical décollage technique based on tears and overlaid advertising images.

Example belonging to the Taormina Arte production, regularly cataloged (present in publication, as per photo).

The works are hand-signed and bear the dry stamp of the Fondazione Mimmo Rotella, an element that guarantees authenticity and strengthens its collectible value.
